EOS nvidia configuration is missing in new installation

My PC has a Nvidia GTX 1650oc graphics card, so I have just installed EOS with Mate desktop and all nvidia drivers and I’m not sure if they are all installed or if I’m missing some:

$ pacman -Qs nvidia
local/egl-wayland 1.1.7-1
    EGLStream-based Wayland external platform
local/libvdpau 1.4-1
    Nvidia VDPAU library
local/libxnvctrl 470.74-1
    NVIDIA NV-CONTROL X extension
local/nvidia 470.74-2
    NVIDIA drivers for linux
local/nvidia-dkms 470.74-1
    NVIDIA drivers - module sources
local/nvidia-installer-db 2.4.25-1
    Database for the script to setup nvidia drivers in EndeavourOS
local/nvidia-installer-dkms 3.3.9-1
    Script to setup nvidia drivers (dkms version) in EndeavourOS
local/nvidia-utils 470.74-1
    NVIDIA drivers utilities

Maybe the nvidia software is no longer used and only the drivers are installed and that would be enough ?

Thanks as always to all of you!

you mean nvidia-settings tool
It is indeed not needed to run Nvidia Drivers, so we do remove it from being installed.

But you can install it if needed: sudo pacman -S nvidia-setting

Ahh, I forgot to tell you Joe, the installation was done in only 18 minutes, when in previous installations the time was 90 minutes, thanks for making that possible, both to you and the EOS team. Masterful work on the iso !
